This wine was fantastic on day 1, but unfortunately fell apart on the second day. The review is based on the first day.
Really lovely nose, a mix of herbal and floral notes. Makes me want to keep my nose in the glass for an extended time.
The palate is medium acidity, that increased slightly over the course of time, and also has a hint of the same floral and herbal notes and a touch of beeswax for weight.

Very similar notes to last time. White peach, hibiscus, lime predominant. Great fresh summer white. Deserves a solid but not extreme chill. Great fun! Score: 92. Relative to expectations :++

Complex nose of peach, hibiscus, lime. Palate was surprisingly tart with grapefruit and mace. I liked it. My wife *loved* it. I think it could last a couple of years but frankly the appeal is its freshness so I don’t see the point of waiting. Delightful summer white with serious aspects to it. Score: 92. Relative to expectations:++

Very pale yellow/white. Nose of wet slate, rose, bubblegum. Flavours of violets, white fruits, lime cordial kiwi fruit, hibiscus tea, with a little nutmeg and grapefruit. Touch of cloves. Complex, challenging and exquisite.

This was a crowd pleaser with nice tropical elements of hibiscus, papaya, jasmine.
